How to Choose a Maritime Attorney

Choosing an experienced attorney, who will spare no reasonable expense to help you, who has the drive to help you, and with whom you are comfortable is one of the most important things that you can do to put yourself in a good position to recover damages.

Choose a Maritime Lawyer With Experience

Maritime is a specialized area of law. It is, therefore, important that your attorney have experience as a maritime lawyer. At Hofmann & Schweitzer, our New York City maritime lawyers have decades of experience representing individuals hurt in maritime accidents. Maritime has been a specialty of our firm since our predecessors were practicing law in the 1950s. With each client we represent, we gain knowledge that benefits our future clients.
